Tarbet

Tarbet is a village in Scotland situated on the north shore of Loch Lomond, within the Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park. It sits in the Argyll and Bute council area and is commonly described as a gateway to the surrounding Trossachs region. The A82 road passes through the village, making Tarbet a traditional stopping point for travelers exploring the loch and nearby hills. The area is characterized by rural scenery and access to outdoor recreational activities such as walking and fishing.

Tarbet is also notable for its railway station, Tarbet railway station, which lies on the West Highland Line between Glasgow and Fort William. The station is a stop along a scenic route that offers views of Loch Lomond from the train and serves walkers and hikers heading toward nearby trails and lochside paths.

The name Tarbet is a Scottish toponym used for several small places in Scotland, though the Tarbet described here near Loch Lomond is the best known. As a village, Tarbet has a small residential community and limited local services, with most amenities found in larger nearby towns along the loch or in the broader national park area.
